Top 5 Netflix Series You Need To Watch

21 September 2018

The week just got easier.

Every week we ask ourselves the same set of questions, why does the weekend go so fast, how much is left in my back account and WHAT’S GOOD TO WATCH ON NETFLIX? With the third question, we can help. Here are our Top 5 picks for must-see Netflix shows.

1) Insatiable

A bullied teenager turns to beauty pageants as a way to exact her revenge, with the help of a disgraced coach who soon realizes he’s in over his head.

Who should watch: Anyone in the mood for some laughs. If you liked Mean Girls you will probably like this.

2) Arrested Development

Not enough people know about this Emmy-winning show, in my opinion one of the best on Netflix.

A story of a wealthy family that lost everything, and the one son who had no choice but to keep them all together.

Who should watch: Anyone looking for a show with tons of seasons to fill the Netflix void in your life. It’s hilarious and you will genuinely find yourself quoting lines from brothers Buster and Gob in your own life. Cok-Co-Ka! Cok-Co-Ka!

3) Ozark

A financial adviser drags his family from Chicago to the Missouri Ozarks, where he must launder $500 million in five years to appease a drug boss.

Who should watch: If you loved Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul or Narcos. If you like shows about out-smarting crime bosses, adrenaline filled moments, all focused around a strained family dynamic, this is for you.

4) The Staircase

A true life, accident or murder puzzler! After the mysterious death of his wife, author Michael Peterson watches his life go under the microscope.

Who should watch: If you liked Making a Murderer, or any crime show ever, this is for you. You will be constantly full of doubt as to whether you believe him or not. It's crazy how many times you will change your mind!

5) Afflicted

Wi-Fi and electricity trigger Carmen’s strange symptoms. Jamison hasn’t left his room in two years. Bekah lives in a van in the desert to avoid mould. Bizarre illnesses affect these people and this series explores the possible causes.

Who should watch: If you liked Dark Web or other docu-series/dark reality TV. It’s a bit of a mind-melter trying to figure it out.
